Crawl review

A stylish, slow-burning debut feature

There are traces of the Coen brothers crawling all over Crawl , from the opening gas station sequence - a riff on No Country For Old Men ’s coin toss - to its gallery of criminals and drifters populating the Aussie town where wholesome barmaid Marilyn (Georgina Haig) is caught in the wake of a murderous double-cross and taken hostage by a Croatian cowboy (George Shevtsov).
